    REFERENCE
    • Both and have quality.
    • The file size, possible shots, and maximum burst during continuous shooting are based on Canon’s testing standards (3:2 aspect ratio, ISO 100 and Standard Picture Style) using an 8 GB card. These figures will vary depending on the subject, card brand, aspect ratio, ISO speed, Picture Style, Custom Functions, and other settings.
    • Figures in parentheses apply to an UHS-I compatible 8 GB card based on Canon’s testing standards.
    • RAW+JPEG records both a RAW and JPEG image with a single shot. The two images are saved to the card simultaneously. The two images will be saved in the same folder with the same file numbers (file extension .JPG for JPEG and .CR2 for RAW).

    [ ] [ ]: For areas where the TV format is NTSC (North America, Japan, Korea, Mexico, etc.).

    [ ]: Mainly for motion pictures.

    NOTE
    • Movie Files Exceeding 4 GB
    Even if you shoot a movie exceeding 4 GB, you can keep shooting without interruption. 
    During movie shooting, approx. 30 sec. before the movie reaches
    the 4 GB file size, the elapsed shooting time displayed in the movie shooting screen will start blinking. If you keep shooting until the movie file size exceeds 4 GB, a new movie file will be created automatically and the elapsed shooting time or time code will stop blinking. 
    When you play back the movie, you will have to play each movie file individually. Movie files cannot play back consecutively
    automatically. After the movie playback ends, select the next movie to be played. 
    • Movie Shooting Time Limit
    The maximum recording time of one movie clip is 29 min. 59 sec. If the movie shooting time reaches 29 min. 59 sec., the movie shooting will stop automatically. You can start shooting a movie again by pressing the <> button. (A new movie file starts being recorded.)
    IMPORTANT
    • When shooting movies, use a large-capacity SD card rated SD Speed Class 6 " " or higher.
    • When shooting movies and using a card with a slow write speed, the movie shooting may automatically end or the movie may not be recorded properly. Additionally, when you play back a movie using a card with a slow read speed, the movie may not play back properly.
    • An increase of the camera’s internal temperature may cause movie shooting to stop before the maximum recording time shown in the table above.
